              Extreme tourism, Cashiers, North Carolina edition

The Marginalia Search Engine [1] is such a cool search engine. It's like
visiting the web in the 90s with the quirky personal sites with ugly designs
[2] and no advertising. Try out some random sites [3].

Very cool.

While there, I decided to see what results it had for Brevard, NC [4] and
boy, some of the results are incredible. I did not know that Cashiers, North
Carolina [5] is a hotbed of UFO (Unidentified Flying Object) activity [6].
Had I know, I might have tried looking for an alien license plate [7] at
(what is now) the Cashiers Valley Smokehouse [8]. Although, had we delayed
our 2015 visit to Brevard [9] to mid-November, we might have seen an actual
UFO [10]!

Darn our luck!
